you all are three anglo men. i should say, people tell the stories that they feel compelled to tell. it's a story that's been told and i'm what your thoughts are about three anglo writers. >> this addresses what you asked about why now? latinos are posed to become a majority in this state. and we argue in the book that, you know, there's never been a better time really for there to be a conversation about the historical alamo, the real alamo as opposed to the alamo of our dreams. and also is a time where the country has undergone this sweeping reassessment in its racial path. texas history has largely gotten a pass. and that is certainly surprising. going in, i had no understanding of the latino experience with the alamo and as the three of us -- it dawned on during the research. this is a big issue. we were very, very sensitive that we are probably not the first people you would ask to bring this into mainstream discourse. so we tried, obviously, to do it with respect by talking to as many latino thinkers as we

anglo texas has filtered it out. >> sorry? >> i shouted them down. >> yes, to the extent that they have been ignored them. and we are hoping that we can elevate their voices and get them heard. >> yes, to that aid, a big part of the opening salvo in your book is something you mentioned earlier, chris. which is that how much slavery was a part of the alamo and preceded the events. and it was historically relevant to this moment. i thought you could talk a little bit about people who might not know about that particular piece of history, just explain it and put it in a nutshell if you can? >> andrew -- wrote a book called -- a few years ago, where he dug into the economic history, as well as the political history of texas. and he rightly observed and points out, and we're in debt to him, that the only reason anglo's were coming to texas was to grow cotton. and the only way to grow cotton profitably at the time was around slavery. so, from stephen f austin's release letters, the goal was to turn texas into an and prior of slavery

and especially what a burden the anglo dominant narrative has been. and at some point we kind of jerked up and said what do you say? after about another hour he does nothing but his homework i said somebody ought to write a book about that. until years later we have. >> initially i thought it would be a fun thing to do with my friends. but as we got into it i realize it's a little exciting shakespeare. you realize how much we get from the alamo here in texas in politics and how much it informs our politics these days. it was stunning to me something i regarded as a provincial tourist interest is so foundational to our life these days. that's really what kept me going to the book. >> sorry i lost my screen this is where we all you everyone understands by now. i want to zero in on something you said, bryant, the latino experience and how that is reflected kind of in the history as someone who is latina whose mexican/american born and raised here in texas. has read some of the scholarship you write in your book about the historian had different glasses o

and especially what a burden the anglo dominant narrative has always been for the state's latinos. at some point jason and i jerked up and said, what are you saying? and after about another hour of it, because chris does nothing but his homework, i said, somebody ought to write a book about that. and two years later, we have. >> yep. initially i thought it would just be a fun thing to do with my friends but as we got into it, it's a little like studying shakespeare, you realize how much we get from the alamo here in texas in politics and how much it informs our politics these days. it was stunning to me how something i regarded as sort of a provincial tourist industry is so foundational to our life these days and that's really what kept me going through the book. >> sorry, i lost my screen and then i put on the unmute. this is where we are, y'all, everybody understands, i'm sure, by now. so i want to zero in on something you said, brian, about, you know, the latino experience and how that is, you know, reflected kind of in the history, you know, as someone who is latina, who is mex

the seven democratic party is anglo, not yankee but anglo native, they can claim to be true american but the northern democratic party in urban democratic party is heavily immigrants are tends to be referred to more by the term tammany hall the democratic party but this political club in new york controls the new york city politics, late 19th century in the middle of the 20th century and the image you have here, very much an image of tammany hall, it suggests corruption. from the perspective of the first political culture, that's what it, we're going to go over some of the history of the most relevant history of tammany hall in the middle of the 20th century and after that, we will look at selections to give you the response from within the second political culture. looking from the outside, this is all corruption, destroy american politics. from within the culture, no. destroy virtue, it's just a different kind of virtue, very much rooted in community. writing from the first political culture, anti- catholic, anti- irish, all that being said, the charges of corruption, tammany was c

male -- a white anglo-saxon male. if you are in a u.s. history class, are you not going to talk about the indian movement? are you knocking a talk about how the chinese were exploited out west -- are you not going to talk about how the chinese were exploited out west? etc. the reason there is such a disagreement on this topic is because there are two america's. you know, lyndon johnson in the 1960's, he commissioned a study, where they found that race was the flashpoint for a lot of the issues that we were having in the united states. bill clinton in the 1990's revisited the commission and found out we were just as segregated. and two years ago, the fbi just came out with a study that said, you know, the greatest threat to the united states is not drugs. it is not muslim extremism, but it is a white supremacy. when you have white supremacy for so long being a push factor, critical race theory is a way to analyze that. thank you. host: go ahead, andrew. guest: sure. maybe an example of what the caller was talking about

churchill would often talk to the anglo-americans and churchill was in the peculiar position because his mother was american and his father was british but what the british finally came around in the 20th century including arguably too today was a recognition that a partnership between america and britain was the best thing going and they won two world wars and save democracy in the 1940s so i guess maybe franklin wasn't wrong for 200 years. >> what i found really interesting also in the book was that while members of parliament and the king were not particularly sympathetic to the grievances of the american colonists there was considerable support among ordinary riddance for the position that the colonists had taken and what they were asking for it. i thought that was a really interesting thing that i had never understood before and i'm sure that many people with me now will have not heard of that and there was tremendous popular support among the non-governmental elite for the idea of the colonists having their rights they were asking for it. >> this is a reminder again of how comp

the russian capital, a german finance minister, olaf sholtes is about become chancellor. replacing anglo merkel. the softer his party and 2 others agree to team up for what's been nicknamed the traffic like coalition, referring to the parties, colors. now it took 2 months for the social democrats, the greens and the free democrats to agree on that terms. of course, off to the september the election, the cd you party, which leads the outgoing government though, has wasted 0 time and criticizing the brand new quote, coalition different loc. the agreement that was presented today is relatively blunt, and in many parts it's vague. and the parties fall short of the things they propagated during the election campaign wouldn't. despite the differences between the 2 main parties out of shelters, starns on foreign policy is seen is very much the same as anglo merkel. judging by the new coalition government, when it comes to relations with russia, expectations are pretty low to see any improvement. russia is an important international player. we understand the importance of substantial and stable

this meeting that's taking place on tuesdays between anglo merkel, the current german chancellor and the successor in waiting for that position. all are short of the social democrats. they're going to be sharing, gathering with the health ministers from the 16 states that make up germany. it's going to try and work out some type of national overarching plan to deal with the current state of affairs here. and it really comes down to the figures that have been really causing grave concern in germany. the 7 day indices, the number of people per 100000 population that have been infected with cove at 19 had been on a very steady rise over the last couple of weeks. in fact, on monday, its highest ever number that's 452.4. the good news if you go to look for a silver lining, is that there has been a slight reduction heading into tuesday morning. i say slight 0 point to select figured currently standing at 452.2. it is the 1st time in 3 weeks. it has gone down though, as we head in to the meeting where that emergency break will be discussed exactly what form it takes. we won't know until tho

to a minimum. spain's infection rate is rising, but it's worth elsewhere in your german chancellor. anglo merkel says a 4th wave has hit her country with full force or infections, or worse, access to events. and restaurants will only be for those who've been vaccinated for who's recovered. munich has canceled it's christmas market infections in bavaria, a double the national race of 300 or so 100001 time and a monday was said that you were allowed to set up. some in the end result is that we have to dismantle now, and we have to bear all the costs. nobody pays the cost. increase, private doctors are being drafted into the public health care system for a month. hospitals and intensive care wards have been overwhelmed by rising infections. recently medic, protesting thing that overworked and underpaid many european countries, a course on the horns of a dilemma. significant part of the population don't want to get vaccinated, but nor do people want more restrictions on their day to day lives. well, those are on back and they did obviously are more susceptible to getting infected and, and hav

between the 2 main parties, all of salters, thoughts on foreign policy seen as a close to that of anglo market and judging by the new coalition agreement, relations with moscow are unlikely to see drastic change. russia is an important. ringback international plan, we understand the importance of substantial and stable relationships and we continue to strive for them. we're ready thought constructive dialogue. we will take into account different threat perceptions and focus on a common and coherent a new policy towards russia. we spoke with frank christian and so he's a member of the body in parliament for the alternate. if you have any party, he says he's competent. his ration in the country will get was under the new coalition. the merkel government will sort of continue. it's getting worse in that sense that that would be my mom i creation due to the greens. there will be more energy problems due to the greens and they wish to foster a renewable energies with wind and, and all of our energy which will not work refuge, geez, they do not come primarily to gain freedom, but to pay take

if this news is coming in this from the netherlands is to be believed anglo american and the well most likely successor all of sholtes as chancellor will be discussing with the health ministers from germany. 16 states what they're going to do for a national tactic to tackle the current outbreak of cove at 19 may well be something about when schools can be closed. also something about curfews as well. be paying close attention to it. however, some of the regional leaders in germany, a saying action needs to be taken immediately to protect our healthcare system. we unfortunately have to shut down the whole country on uneven strips of basis. a federal emergency break must be decided this week. one country that's already in the middle of a lockdown is austria. that's going to run through until at least the end of this week. it could well be extended until the 13th of december. and we've been finding out a little bit more from the austrian government about their proposal that they're going to him, make it mandatory for people to have vaccines from the 1st of february. and anybody who doesn'
